What Brakes To Go For?

[Monster-Mat]

Topic isnt about Phaetons......its about BBK

[TheDon]

Also saw a great big brake kit on lextacy, its an AP System (and i think that AP brakes are some of the best in the world) and its $1800 so that should mean that it could be on your door for £1200 if you get it sent over as a gift

£1200 + C/Tax of about £200 ;)

geting them to put it down as Gift will not cut it ;) , it may do 1 or 2 times if you are lucky

Think i will be waiting for Prolexs BBK

[Monster-Mat]

thats the current one which Fargo has........

one about to be launched will be different.........not sure on costs yet......will have super dooper rotors

[Mr Singh]

Rotora - IS300, 00-02 [330x32 Drilled/Slotted] Red or Blue $ 1,695.00

I reckon they could be in for bang on £1000

fronts only

[Mr Singh]

Indeed.

not remotely interested in rears though.

AM,

its all about balance.............also my rears are fooked after brunters (not vented mine are)......brake later means faster into the corner

[Mr Singh]

I understand this, but i don't think Altezza with possible 270-280bhp needs rear brakes upgrading.

Helll... there are folks running 650rwhp, 600rwtq on the IS300s... no issues with just BBK on the fronts. Even Mat's Monster just has fronts.

If rear BBK is upward of £1000 i could find ALOT of different areas to spend my cash on... If i was in the area of say £1.5-2k (i wish) on BBK's i'd have no hesitation and go for a Endless 6-Pot set which is around $3.5k

For prolonged haaaaard braking and constant beating rear brakes might help on the Track, not on the road, even for monster like power...

[Monster-Mat]

My front Brakes are matched to work with the rears

on the drift car, i will be matching the LS 4 pots with uprated rears
